National Inclusion Week: 26 September – 2 October 2022

National Inclusion Week starting today will focus on the theme of ‘Time to Act: The Power of Now’.

Founded by Inclusive Employers a decade ago, the week is dedicated to celebrating inclusion and taking action to create inclusive workplaces. Last year’s National Inclusion Week theme, #UnitedForInclusion, connected 60 million people celebrate diversity and inclusion. 

For National Inclusion Week this year the organisers want to progress that unity to become action, which is why this year’s National Inclusion Week theme is ‘Time to Act: The Power of Now’.
